alsa-driver requires modversions.h, and looks for it in /usr/src/linux/linux/include/linux However, with kernel 2.6.1, the file is in /usr/src/linux/include/config/modversions.h Making a symlink takes care of the problem (I think). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install gentoo kernel 2.6.1 2. emerge alsa-driver 3. Actual Results: Failed to compile. Expected Results: Compiled.
kernel 2.6.1 has already alsa-driver-1.x included
I'm also seeing a failure to compile: root@sgtrock jim # emerge alsa-driver Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) media-sound/alsa-driver-0.9.8 to / >>> Downloading ftp://linux.sarang.net/mirror/driver/sound/alsa/driver/alsa-driver-0.9.8.tar.bz2 --01:39:44-- ftp://linux.sarang.net/mirror/driver/sound/alsa/driver/alsa-driver-0.9.8.tar.bz2 => `/usr/portage/distfiles/alsa-driver-0.9.8.tar.bz2' Resolving linux.sarang.net... 211.47.128.157 Connecting to linux.sarang.net[211.47.128.157]:21... connected.

Why are you trying to use alsa-drivers w/ a 2.6.* kernel? 2.6 includes alsa already...
2.6.x kernels have alsa. You don't need alsa-driver with 2.6.
